There's a dozen of us FBody guys that drive together, we're best friends. If you feel like a loner over there, come and hang with our group. As for 3rd Gen's around here, all of them are about worthless/crap... sadly, I have the rap sheet around here that if it's a decent looking 3rd Gen, I get the phone calls asking if it's my new car(I've owned four 3rd Gen's in last 4 years).

Car was a factory L98 = 700r4, which = T56 swap, and now means = 400hp 6spd car!

Re: ANY KANSAS PEOPLE!

I know what you mean, there are very few nice ones here as well. most here are beat to hell and not taken care of. How hard of a swap was the t56? I have heard you need to swap flywheels out on 2 piece rear main blocks for it to work if you have an early model third gen.

Cheers!!!
